This pendulum exhibits an elegant and very interesting shell pendant. The pewter pendant is an ankh with Egyptian markings on it. The ankh itself was the Egyptian hieroglyphic character that stood for the word meaning life. Egyptian gods are often portrayed carrying it by its loop, or bearing one in each hand, arms crossed over their chest. It is also known as the Egyptian Cross, or as crux ansata, Latin for "cross with a handle." Measures 6" in length. *NOTE* When you click to enlarge the picture, depending on your internet connection, it may take up to 30 seconds to display.
